In the recent basic knowledge course on technical analysis, we systematically learned the core concepts from beginner to advanced levels. The course started with what technical analysis is and delved into the definitions and classifications of traders—day traders, swing traders, and trend traders, each with their own characteristics. We then focused on the anatomy of candlestick charts, including how opening price, closing price, high, and low form complete price signals.
The course also detailed the importance of time frames(Time-Frame)—from 1-minute charts to monthly charts, with different periods suitable for different trading strategies. By learning these fundamental tools and concepts, traders can more accurately identify market trends, support and resistance levels, and price reversal signals. This knowledge system is the foundation for all advanced applications of technical analysis; whether it’s moving averages, MACD, or other indicators, they all need to be built on a deep understanding of candlesticks and time frames.

After looking at so many candlestick charts, I still find it easy to get trapped. Talking about time cycles is simple, but actually doing it is really difficult.

Candlesticks and timeframes are truly fundamental; without understanding this, any indicator is useless.

Only by laying a solid foundation can you avoid many pitfalls. You really need to master the candlestick charts thoroughly.

K-line charts are simple to explain but also complex; the key is to keep analyzing the charts repeatedly.
The timeframes are truly amazing—1-minute and monthly charts are completely different worlds.
Only when the fundamentals are solid does MACD and other indicators make sense; otherwise, it's just guesswork.
To be honest, support and resistance levels are the most easily overlooked by beginners.

Oh my, this K-line stuff is easy to talk about but hard to do. Every time I get trapped by fake signals.
